Kings Island and Grand Carousel - 5/29/2026

Today I made a solo trip to Kings Island arriving shortly after ten.


With the light morning crown I was able to get two quick laps on Diamondback followed by a ride on Mystic Timbers.  I got in line for The Beast but after a short while it broke down, so I moved on.


I made my way across the park to Coney BBQ where I had Smoked Chicken and Lattice Fries.  I continued my afternoon with rides on Racer, Orion and WindSeeker.


I took the time to ride and take pictures of the Grand Carousel which is celebrating its 100th Anniversary.

Up next was Eiffel Tower, Adventure Express, Bat and Banshee.  My second meal of the day was Pork Loin and Parmesan Roasted Potatoes at Grain and Grill International Kitchen.  I rounded out my visit with a ride on The Beast.


Today was a great day at the park with mild temperatures and a perfectly clear sky.
